Lenovo has launched Legion 5, 5i, 7 and 7i model recently. In this article, I will tell you full specifications and Lenovo Legion 5 Review, especially for Indian buyers. If you want to play heavy games or want to buy a laptop for video editing then Legion 5 will be a great choice for you. I have already reviewed HP Omen 15, Lenovo Legion 5 is very much similar to that product. But in some case Lenovo Legion 5 or 5i is better than HP Omen 15.
First of all, I would like to clear Lenovo Legion 5 and 5i are have similar specifications except Processor. Legion 5 has AMD Ryzen 4000 series processor. On the other hand, Legion 5i has Intel processor. If you will purchase Legion 5 then you will get it cheaper price than Legion 5i with Intel processor.
For your knowledge, popular gaming laptops has AMD Processor like HP Omen 15, Asus TUF Gaming A15 etc.

Lenovo Legion 5 Price in India
Lenovo has launched Legioon 5, 5i, 7 and 7i Laptops in other countries like the US. It also launched in India, but you will purchase it a few weeks later from online stores like Amazon, Flipkart etc.
Between these four models, Lenovo Legion 5 Price is around 900$ in other countries with AMD Processor. If you want to buy with Intel 10th generation processor then 5i price will increase.
Few other gaming laptops in these price range is available in the market like HP Omen 15, Asus TUF Gaming 15, Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3i etc. Lenovo Legion 5 is better than Ideapad Gaming 3i in my opinion. Tell me your pick between these laptops.
Final Word
Usually, the price of a gaming laptop is too high. I don’t recommend my YouTube Channel subscribers to buy a gaming laptop if they don’t want to play games or edit high-quality videos. Currently, I am a blogger for the last 1.5 years and I have only one laptop which is HP 14q CS0023TU. I am using only one laptop for the last 1.5 years for all my online works like managing Google Adsense, YouTube, Instagram Content creation etc.
If you have a budget then definitely you can buy expensive laptops. Obviously you feel great to use it compared to a budget laptop. But for office works, student use or work from home jobs, you don’t need to purchase expensive laptops. Most of the people have laptops under 20000 for their typing works. In this website I have written a few budget laptops review, you can check this here.
- HP 14q CS0023TU Review (₹32,990)
- HP 14q CS0029TU Review (₹34,990)
- 14q CY0009AU (₹25,990)
Ok coming back to our topic, Lenovo has launched total 4 laptops Legion 5, 5i, 7 and 7i. Lenovo Legion 5 and Lenovo Legion 5i only difference is processor and price. Legion 5 has AMD Ryzen 4800H Processor and 5i has Intel processor. Intel-powered Legion 5i is more expensive than Legion 5.
Last but not least please try to buy Lenovo Legion 5 or any other expensive products during the sale. The normal time you have to spend a lot of time but if you purchase in sales then you will get 10-15% discount easily.
